In this story based on the author's childhood, a young Black boy
confronts his first experience of overt racism. In recounting the
events to his grandfather, the young narrator asks: "How can she
hate me when she doesn't know me?" Grandpa offers wisdom and
encouragement to the child, reminding him that another person's
hate does not change the fact that he is loved and that he matters.
While offering an unflinching look at the emotional impact of the
encounter, Tyler Merritt presents a message of love and acceptance
that will resonate with young readers and offer a starting point
for conversations about racial equality between parent or caregiver
and child.
